Compared the subtest and IQ scores obtained by a sample of 75 learning disabled and retarded children and youth (50 boys, 25 girls) on the WISC‐R after a 2‐year time interval. Stability coefficients (test‐retest) were obtained for the sample. The evidence obtained from the present study indicated that the WISC‐R provides stable full‐scale IQs.
